Methodology
Commerce is conducting this investigation in accordance with
section 731 of the Act. Commerce has calculated export prices in
accordance with section 772(a) of the Act. Commerce has calculated
constructed export prices in accordance with section 772(b) of the Act.
Because Vietnam is a non-market economy, within the meaning of section
771(18) of the Act, Commerce has calculated normal value in accordance
with section 773(c) of the Act. Furthermore, pursuant to sections
776(a) and (b) of the Act, Commerce has preliminarily relied upon facts
otherwise available, with adverse inferences, for the Vietnam-wide
entity, which includes 12 companies.\8\ In addition, pursuant to
sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act, Commerce has preliminarily relied
upon facts otherwise available, with adverse inferences, in part, for
Ton Dong A Corporation. For a full description of the methodology
underlying Commerce's preliminary determination, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.

Combination Rates
In the Initiation Notice,\9\ Commerce stated that it would
calculate producer/exporter combination rates for the respondents that
are eligible for a separate rate in this investigation. Policy Bulletin
05.1 describes this practice.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\11\ We are not applying an export subsidy offset to the
mandatory respondents because we found no export subsidies were
provided to HSG and TDA. See Certain Corrosion-Resistant Steel
Products from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Preliminary
Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, and Alignment of
Final Determination with Antidumping Duty Determination, 90 FR 9235
(February 10, 2025), and accompanying Preliminary Decision
Memorandum. Similarly, no offset applies to the separate rate
companies because their rate is based on the rates determined for
HSG and TDA. For the Vietnam-wide entity, we have determined the
amount of the offset based on the CVD Preliminary Determination for
the non-responsive companies subject to total AFA. See also
Memorandum, ``Calculation of CVD Subsidy Offset for the Vietnam-Wide
Entity,'' dated concurrently with this Federal Register Notice.
\12\ Commerce preliminarily determines that HSG, Hoa Sen Nghe An
One Member Limited Liabilities Company, and Hoa Sen Nhon Hoi--Binh
Dinh One Member Limited Liabilities Company are a single entity. See
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with section 733(d)(2) of the Act, Commerce will
direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to suspend liquidation
of subject merchandise as described in the scope of the investigation
section entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register,
as discussed below. Further, pursuant to section 733(d)(1)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.205(d), Commerce will instruct CBP to require a cash
deposit equal to the weighted average amount by which normal value
exceeds U.S. price, as indicated in the chart above as follows: (1) for
the producer/exporter combinations listed in the table above, the cash
deposit rate is equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margin
listed for that combination in the table; (2) for all combinations of
Vietnam producers/exporters of merchandise under consideration that
have not established eligibility for their own separate rates, the cash
deposit rate will be equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping
margin established for the Vietnam-wide entity; and (3) for all third-
county exporters of merchandise under consideration not listed in the
table above, the cash deposit rate is the cash deposit rate applicable
to the Vietnam producer/exporter combination (or the Vietnam-wide
entity) that supplied that third-country exporter.
To determine the cash deposit rate, Commerce normally adjusts the
estimated weighted-average dumping margin by the amount of domestic
subsidy pass-through and export subsidies determined in a companion
countervailing duty (CVD) proceeding when CVD provisional measures are
in effect. Accordingly, where Commerce has made a preliminary
affirmative
[[Page 15345]]
determination for domestic subsidy pass-through or export subsidies,
Commerce has offset the calculated estimated weighted-average dumping
margin by the appropriate rate(s). Any such adjusted rates may be found
in the ``Preliminary Determination'' chart of estimated weighted-
average dumping margins above.
Should provisional measures in the companion CVD investigation
expire prior to the expiration of provisional measures in this LTFV
investigation, Commerce will direct CBP to begin collecting cash
deposits at a rate equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping
margins calculated in this preliminary determination unadjusted for the
passed-through domestic subsidies or for export subsidies at the time
the CVD provisional measures expire.
These suspension of liquidation instructions will remain in effect
until further notice.
Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with this preliminary determination within five
days of its public announcement or, if there is no public announcement,
within five days of the date of publication of this notice in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Consistent with 19 CFR 351.224(e), Commerce will analyze and, if
appropriate, correct any timely allegations of significant ministerial
errors by amending the preliminary determination. However, consistent
with 19 CFR 351.224(d), Commerce will not consider incomplete
allegations that do not address the significance standard under 19 CFR
351.224(g) following the preliminary determination. Instead, Commerce
will address such allegations in the final determination together with
issues raised in the case briefs or other written comments.
Verification
As provided in section 782(i)(1) of the Act, Commerce intends to
verify information relied upon in making its final determination.
Public Comment
Case briefs or other written comments, excluding scope comments,
may be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance no later than seven days after the date on which the last
verification report is issued in this investigation.\13\ Rebuttal
briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed not
later than five days after the date for filing case briefs.\14\
Interested parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this
proceeding must submit: (1) a table of contents listing each issue; and
(2) a table of authorities.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(i); see also 19 CFR 351.303 (for
general filing requirements).
\14\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d); see also Administrative Protective
Order, Service, and Other Procedures in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings, 88 FR 67069, 67077 (September 29,
2023) (APO and Service Final Rule).
\15\ See 19 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As provided under 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), in prior
proceedings we have encouraged interested parties to provide an
executive summary of their brief that should be limited to five pages
total, including footnotes. In this investigation, we instead request
that interested parties provide at the beginning of their briefs a
public, executive summary for each issue raised in their briefs.\16\
Further, we request that interested parties limit their executive
summary of each issue to no more than 450 words, not including
citations. We intend to use the executive summaries as the basis of the
comment summaries included in the issues and decision memorandum that
will accompany the final determination in this investigation. We
request that interested parties include footnotes for relevant
citations in the executive summary of each issue. Note that Commerce
has amended certain of its requirements pertaining to the service of
documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).\17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\16\ We use the term ``issue'' here to describe an argument that
Commerce would normally address in a comment of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
\17\ See APO and Service Final Rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to
request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal
briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, within 30 days
after the date of publication of this notice. Requests should contain:
(1) the party's name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of
participants and whether any participant is a foreign national; and (3)
a list of the issues to be discussed. If a request for a hearing is
made, Commerce intends to hold the hearing at a date and time to be
determined. Parties should confirm by telephone the date, time, and
location of the hearing two days before the scheduled date.
Postponement of Final Determination and Extension of Provisional
Measures
Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides that a final determination
may be postponed until not later than 135 days after the date of the
publication of the preliminary determination if, in the event of an
affirmative preliminary determination, a request for such postponement
is made by exporters who account for a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise, or in the event of a negative
preliminary determination, a request for such postponement is made by
the petitioners. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2), Commerce requires
that requests by respondents for postponement of a final antidumping
determination be accompanied by a request for extension of provisional
measures from a four-month period to a period not more than six months
in duration.
In March 2025, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(e), HSG and TDA requested
that Commerce postpone the final determination and that provisional
measures be extended to a period not to exceed six months.\18\
Additionally, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(i) and (e)(1), the
petitioners requested that Commerce postpone the final determination
and that provisional measures be extended up to 135 days contingent
upon negative preliminary determinations in these investigations.\19\
In accordance with section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(2)(ii), because: (1) the preliminary determination is
affirmative; (2) the requesting exporter accounts for a significant
proportion of exports of the subject merchandise; and (3) no compelling
reasons for denial exist, Commerce is postponing the final
determination and extending the provisional measures from a four-month
period to a period not greater than six months. Accordingly, Commerce
will make its final determination no later than 135 days after the date
of publication of this preliminary determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Request,'' dated March 26, 2025; see also HSG's Letter, ``Request
for Extension of Final Determination,'' dated March 27, 2025.

Final Determinations,'' dated March 31, 2025.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. International Trade Commission Notification
In accordance with section 733(f) of the Act, Commerce will notify
the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) of its preliminary
determination of sales at LTFV. If the final determination is
[[Page 15346]]
affirmative, the ITC will determine before the later of 120 days after
the date of this preliminary determination or 45 days after the date of
this preliminary determination or 45 days after the final determination
whether imports of the subject merchandise are materially injuring, or
threaten material injury to, the U.S. industry.
Notification to Interested Parties
This determination is issued and published in accordance with
sections 733(f) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(c).

Appendix I--Scope of the Investigation
The products covered by this investigation are certain flat-
rolled steel products, either clad, plated, or coated with
corrosion-resistant metals such as zinc, aluminum, or zinc-,
aluminum-, nickel- or iron-based alloys, whether or not corrugated
or painted, varnished, laminated, or coated with plastics or other
non-metallic substances in addition to the metallic coating. The
products covered include coils that have a width of 12.7 mm or
greater, regardless of form of coil (e.g., in successively
superimposed layers, spirally oscillating, etc.). The products
covered also include products not in coils (e.g., in straight
lengths) of a thickness less than 4.75 mm and a width that is 12.7
mm or greater and that measures at least 10 times the thickness. The
products covered also include products not in coils (e.g., in
straight lengths) of a thickness of 4.75 mm or more and a width
exceeding 150 mm and measuring at least twice the thickness. The
products described above may be rectangular, square, circular, or
other shape and include products of either rectangular or non-
rectangular cross-section where such cross-section is achieved
subsequent to the rolling process, i.e., products which have been
``worked after rolling'' (e.g., products which have been beveled or
rounded at the edges).
For purposes of the width and thickness requirements referenced
above:
(1) Where the nominal and actual measurements vary, a product is
within the scope if application of either the nominal or actual
measurement would place it within the scope based on the definitions
set forth above, and
(2) where the width and thickness vary for a specific product
(e.g., the thickness of certain products with non-rectangular cross-
section, the width of certain products with non-rectangular shape,
etc.), the measurement at its greatest width or thickness applies.
Steel products included in the scope of these investigations are
products in which: (1) iron predominates, by weight, over each of
the other contained elements; and (2) the carbon content is 2
percent or less, by weight.
Subject merchandise also includes corrosion-resistant steel that
has been further processed in a third country, including but not
limited to annealing, tempering, painting, varnishing, trimming,
cutting, punching and/or slitting or any other processing that would
not otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of the
investigations if performed in the country of manufacture of the in-
scope corrosion resistant steel.
All products that meet the written physical description are
within the scope of these investigations unless specifically
excluded. The following products are outside of and/or specifically
excluded from the scope of this investigation:
<bullet> Flat-rolled steel products either plated or coated with
tin, lead, chromium, chromium oxides, both tin and lead (``terne
plate'') or both chromium and chromium oxides (``tin free steel''),
whether or not painted, varnished or coated with plastics or other
non-metallic substances in addition to the metallic coating;
<bullet> Clad products in straight lengths of 4.7625 mm or more
in composite thickness and of a width which exceeds 150 mm and
measures at least twice the thickness;
<bullet> Certain clad stainless flat-rolled products, which are
three-layered corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat-rolled products
less than 4.75 mm in composite thickness that consist of a carbon
steel flat-rolled product clad on both sides with stainless steel in
a 20%-60%-20% ratio; and
Also excluded from the scope of the antidumping duty
investigation on corrosion resistant steel from Taiwan are any
products covered by the existing antidumping duty order on
corrosion-resistant steel from Taiwan. See Certain Corrosion-
Resistant Steel Products from India, Italy, the People's Republic of
China, the Republic of Korea and Taiwan: Amended Final Affirmative
Antidumping Determination for India and Taiwan, and Antidumping Duty
Orders, 81 FR 48390 (July 25, 2016); Corrosion-Resistant Steel
Products from Taiwan: Notice of Third Amended Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value Pursuant to Court Decision and Partial
Exclusion from Antidumping Duty Order, 88 FR 58245 (August 25,
2023).
Also excluded from the scope of the antidumping duty
investigation on corrosion-resistant steel from the United Arab
Emirates and the antidumping duty and countervailing duty
investigations on corrosion-resistant steel from the Socialist
Republic of Vietnam are any products covered by the existing
antidumping and countervailing duty orders on corrosion-resistant
steel from the People's Republic of China and the Republic of Korea
and the antidumping duty order on corrosion-resistant steel from
Taiwan. See Certain Corrosion-Resistant Steel Products from India,
Italy, the People's Republic of China, the Republic of Korea and
Taiwan: Amended Final Affirmative Antidumping Determination for

2016); see also Certain Corrosion-Resistant Steel Products from
India, Italy, Republic of Korea and the People's Republic of China:
Countervailing Duty Order, 81 FR 48387 (July 25, 2016). This
exclusion does not apply to imports of corrosion-resistant steel
that are entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in
the United States for which the relevant importer and exporter
certifications have been completed and maintained and all other
applicable certification requirements have been met such that the
entry is entered into the United States as not subject to the
antidumping and countervailing duty orders on corrosion-resistant
steel from the People's Republic of China, the antidumping and
countervailing duty orders on corrosion-resistant steel from the
Republic of Korea, or the antidumping duty order on corrosion-
resistant steel from Taiwan.
